The Owner of Concierge Realty, Michelle Donato, would be a great candidate for your show, as she has years of knowledge in the vacation industry, with expertise on Aruba and its resorts, as well as family travel and vacation planning, among other related topics. Michelle has worked with many clients from Aruba and has a personal connection to the island as well, and can provide insider information and travel tips. Aruba has many advantages beyond simply having some of the best beaches in the Caribbean. The 80 degree weather and cool breezes will help you settle in, as well as the great restaurants and shopping opportunities. Since it is a small island, visitors can drive across it about 45 minutes, so if there is somewhere they would like to visit, they won’t have to miss out. The island is also home to some of the best resorts and residences in the world, including the Aruba Surf Club, the Aruba Ocean Club, the Ritz-Carlton and more. Since Aruba has more timeshares available than hotels, and there are advantages to owning or renting a timeshare, her knowledge on this topic is invaluable to travelers. She also has knowledge of other luxury vacation destinations, as Concierge Realty works with owners in the Caribbean, Hawaii, the continental United States, and Mexico.

Sabine Filoni, The VP of Rentals at Concierge Realty, is an expert on St.Thomas. She has worked with many clients at The Ritz-Carlton St. Thomas and has vacationed there many times herself. In her experience, the Ritz provides first class concierge service, oceanfront luxury accommodations, and a total escape from the norm into unparallelled paradise. It is a great place for the entire family, as their selection of activities for kids is outstanding. The Jean-Michel Cousteau Ambassador program allows kids to explore the natural history of the U.S. Virgin Islands, featuring a stunning venue and guided tours from naturalists. One of the finer conveniences that the Ritz-Carlton, St. Thomas offers is beachside food and beverage service, which allows guests to relax on the beach and have their food and beverages delivered, as well as have their towels and umbrellas prepared. In addition to having St. Thomas as her destination of expertise, Sabine is also an expert on family travel, planning, and travel deals.
